I want to see more visual portfolios. I like to see an application that has a personalized element to it. Especially in Tech, Design and Management fields. I’ve always been drawn to people who can present a clean, exciting and personally branded web site or online portfolio. Include this link in every application.
Have a personal statement, include pictures of your accomplishments, articles, blogs, press releases, etc.
Check out these portfolios https://skillcrush.com/2013/03/25/10-online-portfolios-that-are-sure-to-inspire/. I know that these are mostly content, tech and design portfolios, but more and more people are creating online portfolios/CVs that describe major projects, accomplishments and more in them and hiring managers are really drawn to these visual aids like these.
Plus if you are high in your career, this is almost essential now, and there are young web and portfolio designers who could help you create yours for pretty cheap. You'd be helping them out too in their career. This really does give people an edge if they are clean, exciting and personal to your professional brand.
Hi there,
I have seen more and more use of portfolios and unique visual aids in applications. Wix is a nice and easy tool to build an online CV and visual portfolio. They are pretty much mandatory if you want to apply to design or tech jobs. They are an especially important tool for new graduates. Use an online or visual portfolio to feature your style and point of view. I think even if you are not applying to tech jobs, create a visual portfolio for your CV. It gives you an edge and does a lot to reveal your personality and attention to detail.
